    Overheating and rough idle

    Rear shocks

    I recently installed front shocks for a better ride.. Wasn't what I expected. I have new tires too. I'm about to put body mount bushing as mine are basically rotted. I haven't replaced the rear shocks and wanted to know if they are a big contributor to a smoother ride?

    The ride after new body mount bushing

    I have an 05 ST that needs body mount bushing. The ride is rough and I have a lot of squeaking. Will new bushing noticeably change the ride and squeaks? Anyone?

    Body mount bushings

    I have an 05 sport trac that has worn out body mount bushings. I'm going to replace them. My question is it very noticeable concerning the ride and handling with new ones?

    2005 Sport Trac Xlt Body mount bushing

    Can someone recommend a body mount bushing kit? I have a mechanic that will install them for 450 which I feel is a fair price but I need to purchase the parts. I know there are 16 bushing in total and I also want to buy the bolts. He suggested that I get the polyurethane ones. I'm looking at...

    Metal to metal noise

    Any help?? When I turn my truck to the left there is a squeaking, slight metal to metal sound in the right wheel well. It only happens when I've driven it for about 5 miles. I guess something needs to warm up. I took all the plastic covering out, it's not the shock, lower ball joints were...

    A/C - Heat blower

    The blower for my a/c heat kind of intermittently works. It seems to only work when it wants too. Trying to figure this one out on my own as my funds are extremely limited. Any ideas?
